Taking 3 of 8 spots in a “Best of” list along with another honorable mention is a good outcome by any measure. Popular Mechanics might not have the same cache it once did, but still a major accomplishment.
Taking best overall was the rotating tri-grit Benchstone Sharpener…
Most Versatile and Precise went to the the Precision Adjust Elite. I concur with this assessment. I have extensive experience with this unit and it is among the best out there…
The Ken Onion Mk 2 won Best professional…
I have much less experience with this one, though I have heard good things. I have a hard time not being too aggressive with it.
